I met Mary Oliver once. She was as big as a minute and dressed in black. I tried to tell her how this one poem had affected my life, but I know I failed.

Becki gave me a silver cuff bracelet a few years ago with the first words of this poem engraved. I wear it every day on my left wrist. I don't believe in luck so I wouldn't say it's lucky. It's a reminder.

I read it all today for the first time in a long while. It's just true. Thank you Mary Oliver. Thanks Beck. Thank you my dear friend Jody for this image we made together.

A Muse Yourself

sometimes it helps if you just write it down

Every day is a Click Day. And that's been true for the better part of the past year. In exactly one week, the troops start rolling in. I am looking forward to having real friends in my space and place. I hope my best efforts have been enough. I really do. And at the tail-end of the very last day of Click Photo Fest, I'll slide into clean pajamas and good sheets and sleep. And then wake up to a new order. "Systematic Order" #film @grayson_vrba
